#PRINTERSHARENAME# The printer share name is mainly for MS
windows integration in order to resend the
same job to the same queue using the
expression:
OutPort=#PCNAME#\#PRINTERSHARENAM
E#
(Not supported under pure NT)
#USERNAME# The variable is set to the content of startup –
P3 operand, or read with a higher priority from
the PJL ATTRIB Commands out of the data
stream.
#VAR_ORIENTATION#
Stores the print orientation (portrait, landscape,
etc) of the data stream, if defined in the data
stream.**
#VAR_PAGESIZE# Stores the page size (A4, Legal, etc) of the
data stream, if defined in the data stream.**
#VAR_PAPERTRAY# Stores the PCL paper tray number of the first
page**
#VAR_RESOLUTION# Stores the resolution (300, 600, etc) of the data
stream, if defined in the PJL section of the data
stream.**
#VAR_SIMPLEXDUPLEX# Stores the simplex/duplex function of the data
stream, if defined in the data stream.**
#VAR_TCPIP_PORT# Available variable for MS windows
implementation that holds the port address of
the queue. (Not supported under pure NT)
* For PCL data streams, the variable is not available at the time the trigger and search events are
processed. If the page count is needed, another counter has to be used.
** Variables are evaluated in the first 2KByte of the data stream. Changes within the data stream are
not documented.
The variables #PCNAME# and #USERNAME# can also be defined in the data stream itself, using PJL
command @PJL SET JOBATTR=”...”. Those sequences in the data stream are treated with a higher
priority, then the -P command line operands.
The following table lists all available variables which were defined to cover customer special needs.
Usually the variables are defined in the ini command file
In-File Entry Description
VARIABLE=RESET_PAGECOUNT:
0
Default: If an UEL is found in the PCL
data stream, the page counter is reset
to 1
VARIABLE=RESET_PAGECOUNT:
1
If an UEL is found in the PCL data
stream and the page counter is even
and we are in duplex mode, the
counter is incremented by 1.
This version should only be used in
duplex printing to move to the next odd
page number.
The same result could be achieved using the key DSM_Cont_Page_Counting.
Some command line arguments are stored into variables, which can be used to in any form or in
conjunction with transferring the data to other programs.
#IN_DSM_FILENAME# Contains the incoming file name, including the full
path for W_DSM command line argument.
#IN_DSM_FILENAMEWI
THOUTPATH#
Contains only the incoming file name, without
path. This variable is not set, if software runs in
